Description
Wake The Dead #1 Comic Book. First Printing in NM Condition. Publisher/Year: IDW, September 2003
Beginning by talking about “Wake the Dead” and the Slasher Films option, Niles said of the comic’s story, “I always described it as, remember when all those teen comedies were coming out and they were actually Shakespeare plays but they just changed the title? That’s what I did with ‘Frankenstein.” “Wake the Dead” was published by IDW Publishing in 2003, with art by Chee. “I kind of did a version of the Frankenstein story in a modern setting. To tell the story without all of the old trappings and the period piece. It sort of addresses the whole Frankenstein mythos in an odd sort of way.”
Niles said that he and the folks at Slasher Films have a lot in common in their tastes in horror. “Rob Eric, who runs Scout, is helping Slash with Slasher — he was the first guy I met there, and we just spent the entire hour nerding out on horror movies, it was fantastic,” Niles said. “I love his taste. He actually made ‘Section 9,’ which I always thought is a great horror movie that deserved a lot more attention than it got.”
